...interesting.

...shows you what money is worth, nothing to bankers if it cannot be as easily exchanged.

Will the Royal Mint tolerate these coins exchanged by the public, once in circulation? That is the question i want to know, will the public accept these coins as coins, why not buy his groceries with them?

The Greek "Konstantinato" 22Κ can easily be exchanged for about 200 Euros though .

...for groceries, that's a nice piece of haloumi.

point is that the coins are marked as legal tender, it is not the coin's worth, as in market value, in question, but what has been declared as an actual worth. Is five pounds, five pounds?

It’s all coming together now why you got so upset and reacted strongly to my complaint about mental weirdos… you’ve got some issues of your own and felt threatened… :)

Well at least you've made a couple of friends here as a result of my thread after 10 years of searching so be grateful!

£5 are supposed to keep their value, this is the central message of Jeremy Corbyn, it should be clear by now that the banks and their sock puppets are devaluing them. They do not care, they use the Royal portrait unregulated, fools for intelligence disgrace themselves :cry:
